  • Avoiding dupes is, I think, an important one. We’ve had multiple instances on Beehaw of the same story showing up more than once. If you try to post a duplicate link, Lemmy will let you know (by showing the previous copies to you as crossposts). It’s harder to make sure you’re not posting the second or third story from a different source on the same topic. Perhaps we can just encourage people to search before posting.

    I’d like the rules to at least ask people to add an image description in their original post. https://beehaw.org/post/686974 would be good to link to here.

    And given the nature of many posts in the news, I think it would be good for this community to remind people to be(e) nice in their discussions.





























  • Looks like only available in one restaurant for now, but it’s a start.

    “For one thing, cultivated meat is not vegan or vegetarian.” -> I know some vegans who would disagree with that, on the grounds that no animal cruelty or slaughter is involved. I suspect there will be a fair bit of debate on this as cultivated meat becomes more widespread. I would guess just like we’ve already got “I’m a vegetarian who eats fish” we’ll end up with “I’m a vegan who does/doesn’t eat cultivated meat.”

    You might want to cross-post this to https://beehaw.org/c/food too.





  • It’s been a pretty decent week for me. I am enjoying that Beehaw is low enough traffic still that it’s quite possible to read through all the new local post titles as they come in. It’s fun watching the community grow. Reminds me a bit of early Twitter days when the entire global timeline was small.

    Back in the real world, I got two days out at Lake Patoka over the weekend, and I’m off tomorrow morning for two days backpacking in the Shawnee NF. Gotta enjoy this good weather while I can!
